Syber

His real name is Nikolai Ivanovich, but his friends call him "Syber", so that's what he goes by. He is most widely known as a strongman competitor, though ironically his height is a hindrance in that. A powerlifting coach explained it to him once, something involving angles and torque, but all he took from it was that a shorter, equally muscled man will be able to lift more.

He is also known to a lesser degree for helping out in the community – visiting sick children in the hospital, helping with Habitat for Humanity, and that sort of thing. However, he's not the type that really likes the limelight, so he doesn't highly publicize this sort of thing.

Professionally, he is the head of security at the global headquarters of Vigilant Enterprises, a holding company that deals mostly in pharmaceuticals and military technology. An odd combination, but so far a profitable one. He's held his current position for four years, and he has yet to get anything other than a superb review. It pays the bills quite nicely, and is flexible enough to allow him his other pursuits. Plus sometimes he gets to tour the R&D facilities and play with the prototypes, and who wouldn't love that?
